What are the best things to do when you visit LA. California.? -

and we also can go anywhere 2 hours out of thereI have disneyland.midevil timesTarget.Etc.

Target? ROFL... There is Venice Beach.. Santa Monica Pier... Griffith Observatory... Holly Walk Of Fame... what kinda things you looking for?

I second Sunshine. Target??? WTF?Re-read the tour guide info book and pick anything else that is not a big-box store. Knotts Berry is nice. Universal is fun. Go for places like that that, but not target. How about Wal-Mart and Sears?? How about a fun day at K-Mart?That s just a little sarcasm leaking out folks.

A kayaker paddled 2 hours with a 6 mph current in a river. The return trip against the same current took 3 hou? -

A kayaker paddled 2 hours with a 6 mph current in a river. The return trip against the same current took 3 hours. Find the speed the kayaker would make in still water.

Make X the paddling speed in calm water. The paddling speed with the current would be X+6 and the paddling speed against the current X-6. Since it took 2 hours at X+6 to go the same distance as it did at 3 hours at X-6 then we make 2(X+6) = 3(X-6)2(X+6) = 3(X-6)2X+12 = 3X-1812+18 = 3X-2X30 = XThe calm water paddling speed is 30 mph.

Where is April Berry from Misouri? -

Last time I checked, she was in Brashear, or was it, Sikeston, no wait, it was Kirksville, oh shoot, I am certain it was Keokuk, no yes, that is it, she was in, Centralia. I saw her there a few months ago.

Robin bocook is look for a kathy babcock, from whitman school in spokane wa.let me know? -

SHould i go to great wolf lodge in the summer? -

i was thinking of going to great wolf lodge va, for my summer b-day (im turning 14) and i was wondering if it would be a good idea -will i have to have a adult follow me around all the time-will it be expensive -will it b enjoyable for my age group or wud it be god for only little kids

If you are talking about The Great Wolf Lodge in The Wisconsin Dells, it is an awesome water park for all ages. I believe they have life guards so I wouldn t worry about the adult thing. Yes it is expensive and you have to book it well in advance. I am a 54 year old big kid and I have a blast in water parks. They are fun for all ages. Go for it. If you cannot get in to the Great Wolf, there are a number of other water parks there as well.

I think your age group would have fun, it would be somewhat expensive, and you will need supervision depending on your parent s decision

Does anyone have any personal knowledge of good spots to watch the sun rise/set over the Atlanta GA skyline? -

I m looking for a nice, calm, potentially romantic spot to watch the sun rise or set in Atlanta. A particular park.......a spot I can drive up to.....you know, something secluded, but not TOO secluded.

Stone Mountain is a good choice. Another might be the Westin Peachtree Plaza hotel...get a room high on the east side...just open your drapes and watch it in bed. Having a bottle of chilled champagne wouldn t hurt.

Piedmont Park has a nice view of Midtown and I m sure the view at sunset is good. I ve never been there at sunrise but I bet that Centenniel Park offers a great view of Downtown at sunrise.

The North Avenue bridge over the freeway always used to have the best view of the downtown skyline.

If you want the skyline, the best place is probably the top of Stone Mountain.

definitely Stone Mountain

yes in atlanta, ga.

What is the best gym in San Francsico? -

Ok im in the offseason for football and i need to get stronger. i want a membership to a gym. Anyone know a good gym that is also not very expensive? I am 15 years old. Thanks

Your question doesn t really have anything to do with travel you might find better answers on the local business boards.Another good resource would be to check out the gym reviews on yelp.http://www.yelp.com

Who is performing at the 2009 Rockefeller Center tree lighting ceremony? -

NBC will have the list for Rockefeller Center Plazahttp://events.nbcnewyork.com/manhattan-n��And below is for Macy s Paradehttp://411newyork.org/forum/index.php?sh��

Im moving to Annapolis, Maryland. Whats there to do there? -

Moving for private issues, moving in with family. I don t really know anything about the area. What s there to do around there? (I m 20, soo no old people/rich people stuff :P)

Well I don t live in Annapolis I live in Baltimore, so I know that area a little better. I m not sure where you lived before so I couldn t really tell you what you might find fun. The Baltimore Inner Harbor is always a fun place to go to though, more so in the summer but it s definitely a fun place. There s also dance clubs and a lot of fun bars downtown. Of course there s the ever popular Orioles and Ravens games, too. Towson is also near, and College Park too. Honestly...the most fun things you can find to do is party haha

Which fast-food restaurants are open today in Los Angeles? -

I m not in the Thanksgiving spirit.

KFC was open when I passed by.

It s Friday now, so they should all be open. Bon appetit.

Carls jr was open not sure bout right now though

What is the best place to live in nyc for an alright price? -

i want a safe area that is not crazy expensive. what are some areas to look into?

If you want to be IN the city then you get more for your money on the upper east side. I wouldn t look any higher then 96-97th street. Try to avoid craig s list in looking for apartments because there are a lot of shady real estate people on there. I have found that the NY times is the best place to look and they have lots of nice no fee apartments. Plus you can see how long it s been listed so you know that if it s been on there a while it s either A) Crap or B) you can talk them down on the rent.Hoboken NJ is also a great place to live - you get more space for the money and there are great little shops and a nice nightlife. There s easy access to get to the city by bus, ferry or path train. This area is mostly young professionals.

Well, if you can afford Manhattan. You can also try the outer boroughs or New Jersey.Good luck

In the evenings is there anything to do in the jewish parts of new york such as williamsburg and boro park? -

yes, you may walk to the store to buy some nice bread.

Those neighborhoods are not just Jewish, they are orthodox and even Hassadic. You should contact a shul in the area and speak to someone, the rebbe perhaps.

PFFFFT

Is there a list of places where people are going in Cash cab? -

Many passengers seem to be going to interesting places or restaurants, but I always miss the names or addresses.

The contestants determine the location that the Cash Cab is driving to. However the pickup itself is not random...What happens is, the producers of the show go to local events like trivia nights at bars, and they say they are recruiting for a show about Places people like to go in NYC , or something like that. That s the cover story, since they want it to be a surprise.But the contestants need to agree to be on a show, since they have to sign release forms.So the producers ask prospective contestants about where they like to go in New York, then they send a cab to pick them up and take them there, then SURPRISE! It s the Cash Cab.So the place the Cash Cab is going is the place that the people chosen for the show have stated as a place that they like to go often.They ve recruited twice from the trivia night that I go to - but by now maybe they re using a different cover story...

Dubious. Google doesn t seem to have a list; plus most people on the show are probably going to what are just mundane, relatively unremarkable places like certain bars, restaurants, or someone s home. However, off the top of my head I can think of some places where the cab has stopped:Museum of Natural HistoryChelsea PiersStrand Bookstore (12th Broadway)Webster HallPATH station on 9th St.Woolworth BuildingWorld Financial CenterBlarney Stone (?)Of course, you ll see other interesting spots along the way. In past episodes they ve passed the big 9 outside the Solow Building, Times Square, Tiles for America, the Metronome, Grand Central Terminal, etc.
